CTSA Tool Shop Webinar this Friday, June 27th @ Noon E.T.

The Center would like to alert you to an upcoming CTSA Tool Shop Webinar on Friday, June 27th at 12:00 pm Eastern Time.

This webinar will focus on Rapid Response Team (RRT) Grant Proposal Software and will be presented by Robin Faria from the University of California Los Angeles CTSI.

The online RRT Grant Proposal Management Software System is tailored for time and people management. This online tool includes automated, clear task assignments with deadlines and messaging (email notifications) for both scientists and grant administrators to ensure that key scientific and administrative tasks are completed at the optimal time. The system also includes shared document functionality to provide easy access to and storage for files and from which collaborators can access current versions of documents without digging through email and worrying about editing versions that are not current. This system also offers month-formatted calendars with actions due for a given grant for all of the team members involved in specific grant responses. The system is extremely customizable and can be altered to fit all grant proposals/projects.
